What are you doing
Brooke?” he asks nervously around his smile making me
grin.


Don’t worry, I won’t hurt
you” I smile into the mic making the crowd laugh.

I put the mic by the
handle into my mouth, taking the jug out of his hands I place it on
the floor and pull his white t-shirt up over his head.

We’re rewarded with a loud
squeal from the women in the club to which I wink at
him.

Completely turning my back
to the crowd I take off my shirt and put his T-shirt on over my
head once it’s on I undo the knot of my bikini that’s behind my
head and pull it down my legs and step out of it. I catch Tucker
staring at my chest and roll my eyes at him “nothing you haven’t
seen before” I whisper to him before turning back to the
crowd.


Brooke” Andrew warns into
his mic, picking up on what I’m about to do.


Try not to have a heart
attack honey” I reply to him and gesture for the band to come
forward.


Soak her, Soak her” the
crowd chants and as soon as the band catches on they all start
laughing and shaking their head.


This is definitely was
definitely the best idea we had, moving here” I hear Cam say behind
me.


You have no idea” Tucker
mutters back.


What are you waiting for
boys?” I call into the mic before rolling it across the floor to
the other side of the stage and getting down onto my knees just as
five jugs of ice cold water come pouring down on my head and my
chest. The Crowd erupts and the DJ puts the music back on. Thanks
to Andrew still holding his mic I can hear him Lucy, Dan and Will
all laughing into it.


Did I mention how good it
is to see you again? Tucker smiles at me as he helps me up and off
the stage.


Sorry about your T-shirt”
I shrug at him smirking.


Oh hey Jo, This is Tucker,
Tucker this is Joanne” I introduce them both and head back to the
bar not looking back but hearing her giggle “Call me
Jo”.


So who’s the guy?” Lucy
asks handing me a towel so I can attempt to stop my hair from
dripping all over the floor.


Who?” I ask from under my
towel.


The one you just left half
naked”


Oh … That would be Tucker
Lloyd, we went to uni together. Do you remember when my friend
Sophie visited?” I ask tuning to watch Tucker and Jo with
her.


Yeah” she says not taking
her eyes off him.


Well remember her
boyfriend Matt, that’s his cousin”


He’s cute” she
notes


Yeah” I agree to the
understatement of the century.


So what’s he like?” She
asks turning to face me.

I shrug “Well tonight’s
the fist time I’ve spokayen and seen him in two years so I don’t
really know what he’s like anymore”


What
was
he like then?” She
pushes.


Umm outgoing, confident,
had sex with anything with legs…” I trail off.


So basically he’s
Andrew”


Worse than
Andrew”


And hotter” she
sighs.


Just be careful, from what
I remember he was only ever interested in one thing, and it wasn’t
how you got home in the morning” I caution noting the gleam in her
eyes.


Do you two have history?”
she asks turning back to the crowd.


We used to friends” I
reply turning around with her and catch Tuckers eye, he’s been
watching us.


Used to be?” she asks
confused.


When I left, I never
wanted to see him again” I sigh and walk away to serve my last
drink of the night.

 

That night when I get home
I head straight for my bedroom. Kneeling on the floor I pull out
the box from under my bed that is full of things from my life
before I moved here.

Curled up on my bed, over
the covers I flick through some of the photos I haven’t looked a
for two years, I watch as the first tear falls on the photo in my
hand and trails a wet line directly between Tucker and I, I stash
the photos under my pillow and cry softly into the empty room until
sleep swallows me.

For the first time in a
long time, I don’t sleep peacefully as the old nightmares
return.

Chapter Nineteen

 


Brooke!” Lucy calls me
over to me as I make my way through the bar. “I’m getting off in a
minute” she grins at me.


Want a hand?” I ask
noticing the large group of girls waiting for their
drinks.


Don’t you dare, it’s your
birthday. Give me two minutes, Andrew’s already got a table” she
points with her head and I turn to see where he is sat.


Why are the band sat
there?” I ask as I watch Tucker and Andrew throw their heads back
laughing.


Oh Andrew and Tucker have
gotten close” she says as if I should already know this.


Great” I mutter to myself
and help her down as she climbs over the bar with a tray of shot
glasses, a bottle of tequila and then hands me two jugs of beer and
stack of glasses.


Don’t hold back baby girl”
Will calls to me over the bar. I wink at him and head over to the
table where everyone stands to greet me a happy
birthday.


What’s the plan?” Jamie
asks once we’re all seated.


The plan is to get the
Birthday girl wrecked!” Andrew shouts and everyone at the table
cheers.


We’re going to play ‘I
never’” Mel announces to the table. “Rules are simple we all have
to take turns to say something we have never done, if anyone at the
table has ever done it they take a shot” she explains unnecessarily
while handing us all out shot glasses and then filling them.
“Birthday girl goes first”


I have never woken up
naked on a train” I announce then burst out laughing when Andrew
empties his shot glass. “That is so random”.


I have never has sex with
a man” he says smirking as all us girls throw our shots
back.


I’ve never kissed a girl”
Lucy smirks at the boys then drops her jaw as I throw my shot
back.


Something you wanna tell
us Brooke?” Andrew grins down at me.


I had an eventful
university life” I shrug.


Is this something you
witnessed?” he asks Tucker seriously, hoping for a good story. I
glare over at Tucker but he ignores it.


If I remember correctly it
was straight after she finished her pole dance” he chuckles when
gasps of “no way” go up around out table making me roll my
eyes.


You’ve been holding out on
me Brooke?” Andrew asks looking me over.


You hardly know me” I wink
at him.


Oh I know you” He winks
back


You couldn’t handle me at
my best” I smirk at him.


I’ve never danced on a
bar” Cam chuckles as I take my shot then pout at the
table.


Come on guys, your killing
me, I won’t be able to walk after twenty minutes of this” I
complain.


I’ll help you out Brooke”
Jess assures me “I’ve never made a sex tape”

Everyone watches the table
when no one takes their shot and then Andrew clears his throat and
looks pointedly to my shot glass.

I growl but then take my
shot. Everyone stares at me open mouthed.


You have not made a sex
tape!” Lucy shrieks at me making me blush.


Oh she has” Andrew grins
“How do you think Dan has seen her naked?”


You made a sex tape with
Dan” Lucy, Mel and Jess all scream at me simultaneously.


No I didn’t, he found it”
I grimaced remember all the weeks of torment I went through after
that.


So who was it with?” Lucy
leans forward.

I look around the table
but avoid everyone’s eyes


No one, it was just me. I
forgot about the camera I had set up in the spare bedroom” I snap
embarrassed.

The girls all burst out
laughing and the boys swap hi fives between saying “I gotta get a
copy of that”, “Fucking hell”, “that’s so hot” and “Bloody hell
Brooke” the last one from Tucker with a look of awe in his
eyes.


You lot think you know me
but we’ll see” I roll my eyes at them “I’ve never been caught
having sex by my mother, while doing it on the washing machine, in
her kitchen, on Christmas day” I say happily glancing at Mel when
she takes her shot.


I’ve never drunk dialed
three people and threatened to kill them, in the same night” She
smiles at me as I take my shot.


I’ve never gone out in
public wearing odd shoes” I say looking over to Derek.


What neither have I” he
asks confused, I raise an eyebrow at him and point under the table.
Moments later everyone is laughing and he’s taking his
shot.


I’ve never had five men
pour jugs of water over me in front of a hundred people” he smiles
back at me.


I’ve never” I say before
taking my shot “asked my best friend to marry me” I smile over at
Jess who shrugs.


I was drunk and you’re
cute” she pokes her tongue out at me making me roll my eyes. “I’ve
never been approached by a police officer and asked him if he was a
stripper when he asked to see my driving license” she smirks at me
and Tucker snorts.


I’ve never had sex with
someone more then ten years older than me” I finish my shot and
look over to Tucker who chuckles, shaking his and takes his shot as
the boys all pat him on the back saying “Dude!”.


I’ve never stripped in
front someone whilst breaking up with them” he raises an eyebrow at
me and I wince remembering Jason.


OKAY I get the point
people, next game or I’m going to be on my ass in a minute” I
complain feeling the beginnings of the alcohol taking
affect.


OKAY so because it’s
you’re twenty third birthday we get to ask you twenty three
questions, no thinking about it first answer that comes into your
head” Andrew informs me.


OKAY, hit me” I say
sinking into my chair as they all start firing questions at me so
fast I can’t even tell who’s asking what.


Ever had a one night
stand?”


Yes”


Ever been
arrested?”


No”


Ever been in
love?”


Yes”


One person you
love?”


My dad”


Have you slept with anyone
who’s in the club tonight?”


Yes”


Ever been proposed to by a
boyfriend?”


No”


Have you slept with
Dan?”


No”


Would you ever sleep with
him?”


No”


How many people at this
table have you kissed?”


Five”


How many did you kiss
properly, with tongue?”


Two”


What’s one thing you miss
about being in a relationship?”


Oral sex”


Why?”


Because I like to give my
boyfriend a blowjob every morning to see that he has a good
day”


Are you real?”


Yes”


How do you like your men
in bed?”


Erect”


Have you always sucked at
bets?”


Yes … no wait I don’t

Apparently you do … have
you always been sarcastic or is it just since you moved
here?”


Always”


Do you have a
tattoo?”


Two”


One thing that turns you
on?”


Tongue”


What’s do you

Just a tongue, it can be
in my mouth, on my hand, on my neck, anywhere just the feel of a
tongue.


One thing that is
guaranteed to make you come during sex?”


Sucking my
neck”


What underwear are you
wearing right now?”


White lace
thong”


What bra?”


I’m not wearing one. Have
you not noticed my strapless dress?”


Are you still a whore?”
the last question is whispered in my ear. I jump up out of my chair
screaming and hug Sophie who’s just crept up behind me.

I laugh at her question
“What are you doing here?”


Didn’t think we’d miss
your birthday did you?” she laughs as she releases me and Matt
immediately pulls me into a hug.
